Xactly iPad App Provides Sales Data in Real Time

By Jessica Binns, Contributing Editor — May 15, 2012

Xactly Corporation launched a new native iPad application for its flagship Xactly Incent platform. The application extends the power of Xactly's Incent mobile capabilities by allowing sales managers, teams and individual reps to view key sales performance metrics, from quota attainment to sales commission payments, in real time on the iPad. Free to current Xactly Incent users, the application will be available for download at the Apple App Store in June 2012.

As evidence of the exponential growth of tablet adoption, Forrester forecasts that tablets will reach 112.5 million U.S. consumers — one-third of the U.S. adult population — by 2016. A recent Ventana Research benchmark study added that 17 percent of sales organizations have already deployed tablets and 30 percent more are planning to deploy tablets in 2012.

Xactly Incent for iPad gives sales reps clear insight into their commission plans and sales performance, including quota progress, sales ranking and payment details, anytime and from anywhere. Sales reps can easily swipe between iPad screens to view custom dashboards that include information on their sales quota goals and attainment by month, quarter or year. With the application, sales personnel can better manage their performance by easily searching for and drilling into incentive information on each deal to view compensation payments and owed commissions.

"The rise of enterprise mobility is empowering organizations to get better intelligence and drive improved performance – regardless of where the job may take them. This is especially apparent for sales personnel who spend the bulk of their time outside of the office with customers," said Christopher Cabrera, president and CEO, Xactly Corporation. "By extending our cloud platforms, Xactly Incent and Express, to the iPad, we are providing a seamless and integrated experience for managing sales commissions from the office to the field."

For smartphone users, Xactly provides a browser-based solution with Xactly Incent Mobile. In addition, Xactly Express, the industry's first self-service sales compensation management software designed specifically for SMBs, is available as a native iOS application for the iPad in the App Store today.
